ventor's Review of Epic

I was pleasantly surprised by this. The animation is superb. The story is reminiscent of the 90s film Fern gulley. A human gets shrunk to fairy size and the forest has to be saved from destruction. The big difference (and it is a good one) is that the bad guys are small creatures like the good ones. In fact the tiny creatures make fun of the slow stupid humans, paying them little heed. Along with the overarching plot of saving the forest, is the developing relationship of a father and daughter, along with other secondary plots that make viewing this film a very rich experience. Great family entertainment. Downsides to this film would have to be its title. The word 'epic' was overused so much in the otts that naming a film this is like beating a dead horse. Instant eye-rolling ensues when you hear the title of this film for the first time. This is hardly a deterrent from watching this. Definitely worth your time
